Heron Gate - The Vision 2016

Site Clearance - April/May 2016

Following the demolition there was still a lot of debris on site to be removed.

Groundworks Start - May/June 2016

Then the groundworks could begin in earnest.

Site Levelling - Late June 2016

... and continued through the month.

Stabilising - July 2016

... and so to the start of piling. (Think that's what they call this process, but hey I'm no expert!)

Foundations - August 2016

Great fun watching the foundations being poured. (Wonder why this isn't as popular a viewing pastime as the demolition?)

Brickwork Starts - August 2016

All in All - it's just another brick in the wall!

Brickwork Rising - September 2016

Brick by Brick the walls start to rise and the true shape of the outline starts to emerge.

Fabricated Frame Erection Starts - November 2016

Very little obvious progress during October and November amidst local rumours of issues with the underground streams.
However it might simply have been a case of waiting for the steel fabrications to arrive. Now that they have appeared on site and started to be erected,
it looks as if some more monthly progress reports will be in order.

Brickwork around the Fabrication - December 2016

Visible signs of progress appearing as Christmas approaches. Bases concreted. Brickwork progressing, especially on the two-storied section nearest to Maldon Road. How much longer will it take?
Completion is currently scheduled for 1st quarter of 2018
